Chapter 474: A Generation of Emperors (12)
"Cui Xiaoxiao!"
"What a very special woman!"
Wu Chu, who was already on the march, couldn't help but think about that strange woman, or that woman with some legends. I didn't expect him to have such a story with such a strange woman, which made him feel a little nostalgic, if it weren't for the military situation, he would be willing to stay for another two or three days. Of course, after doing that, when the war is over, he can only marry home, he, Wu Zheng, is not an irresponsible man.
In this way, if Cui Xiaoxiao is accepted, the contradiction with Boling Cui's family can be alleviated, but it is not an example, and the contradiction cannot always be alleviated by marriage, some practical problems must still be solved, otherwise, how can we talk about hard work.
Moreover, some people in the Boling Cui clan still can't use it, Cui Xiang and others, they can only write and write, what to paint, although there are poems, but they are all some exaggerated works of praise and virtue, and the rhetoric is gorgeous, not the pragmatic articles required by Wu Zheng, since this is the case, let them continue to read and read.
Thinking like this, he felt that the relationship with these noble families was not without a solution, Cui Ye seemed to be very happy about Cui Xiaoxiao's choice, although the old guy didn't say anything, but judging from his actions in the morning, he should be satisfied in his heart. It's just that this has accepted Cui's again, and the women in the family are probably unhappy for a while. But Wu Chu can only be helpless, to this position, a little sacrifice is still necessary. If you can get the support of the Bolingcui clan in the future, then will other famous families still not be able to pry?
Therefore, Wu Chuan felt that this woman slept worthily, not to mention. I also got the recipe for the winemaking process, which was even more worthwhile.
So, he laughed three times. He commanded: "Order the armies, speed up the march, and tonight, this king will spend the night among the rivers!" ”
Immediately, the herald ran to give the order, and the sergeant began to walk at an accelerated pace.
Shendu, Luoyang.
A slender woman stood leaning against the railing. Looking at the flower-filled garden under the attic, there are all kinds of flowers in full bloom at this time. She sniffed the faint scent of flowers in the air. Then he stretched out his hand and pressed it on her lower abdomen, and if you look closely, you can see that her lower abdomen has risen slightly. Apparently pregnant.
Shangguan Wan'er sighed lightly. Said: "Hey, little girl, it's not the right time for you to come now, if your father ascends the throne, it's easy to say, and I don't have to bother so much." ”
Although Shangguan Wan'er told Wu Chu that she had her own way to get the empress to spare her punishment, she was also afraid that the empress would order her to drink the abortion decoction. The empress's heart is ruthless, and Shangguan Wan'er has experienced it herself. So. It's been two months, and every time she sees the empress in the palace, she can't help but say nothing.
But even if you don't say it, this belly is getting bigger day by day, and it will always be seen by the empress. And the two look at their expressions are not right, always look at her lower abdomen, if it weren't for the queen, it is estimated that they would be more presumptuous. If it goes on like this, it is better to say it early, so as not to make the empress suspicious.
Having made up her mind, Shangguan Wan'er decided to enter the palace at this moment, she was originally Mu Xiu, but the empress was just sympathetic to her. She can enter the palace at any time, or even leave the palace for the rest of her life.
In this way, Shangguan Wan'er got into the simple carriage and soon came to the palace, and today the empress was not in good health, so she did not summon Erzhang, so she only rested in Liritai.
Shangguan Wan'er walked quickly to Liri Terrace, and when she saw Gao Yue and other internal guards waiting outside, she couldn't help but be stunned, and when she walked past Gao Yue, Gao Yue whispered: "To be controlled, the saint is not happy today." ”
Shangguan Wan'er was stunned for a moment, but thought that if she said it at this moment, the empress would definitely be furious, but it was a good time for Erzhang to be absent today. Immediately, Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and then Lianbu moved lightly and stepped into Liri Terrace.
The sound of small footsteps made the empress raise her head, and she had always felt a feeling of dizziness lately, was this a sign of imminent death? In this way, she is prone to anger. When I heard the footsteps at this moment, I thought it was a palace maid, but I dared to disturb myself at this moment, and I was about to scold, but I saw Shangguan Wan'er coming.
For Shangguan Wan'er, the empress is very fond of it, she is not only her right-hand man, with Shangguan Wan'er, she will not worry about political affairs and no one will watch, with Shangguan Wan'er, she can control the government in time, control the movements of the literati, and then grasp public opinion.
"Shangguan to be controlled?" The Empress snorted.
Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly bowed and sang Wanfu.
The empress asked, "Aren't you Mu Xiu today?" Why did you run into the palace again? ”
As she spoke, she took the tea, took a sip, and then put it down and looked at Shangguan Wan'er.
Shangguan Wan'er's heart was crossed, and she immediately knelt on the ground, lowered her head and cried.
The empress was stunned, what happened to this child? So he asked, "Wan'er, why are you crying so well." Oh, don't cry, what's so difficult for you, say that Yu I is, I am the master for you! ”
Shangguan Wan'er still cried and didn't speak. The empress was stunned for a moment, it seemed that this child had something unspeakable, and then waved away the palace maids left and right, and said: "There are only you and me here, Wan'er, you can talk about it now." ”
Shangguan Wan'er stopped her tears and sobbed: "Holy Lord, Wan'er is a capital crime!" ”
Kindness? The empress suddenly stood up and asked, "What crime have you committed, you actually said that it was a capital crime, you are different from others!" As long as it's not a rebellion, I'll pardon you! ”
Shangguan Wan'er said: "The slave thought she was sick, so she went to the doctor and learned that she was pregnant. ”
"What?" The empress was amazed, and then asked sharply, "Whose is it?" ”
"The slave doesn't know ......," Shangguan Wan'er sobbed.
The empress couldn't help but be furious, and then picked up the inkstone on the imperial case and smashed it towards Shangguan Wan'er.
Shangguan Wan'er was frightened in her heart, but she couldn't dodge, otherwise the empress would be even more furious, in that case, perhaps, she would be so delicate today.
I saw that the corner of the inkstone was in the center of Shangguan Wan'er's eyebrows, Shangguan Wan'er's forehead suddenly flowed blood, and the inkstone fell to the ground, and the ink inside splashed and sprinkled on Shangguan Wan'er's moon-white robe, speckled and mixed with the bloodstains, shocking.
After the empress threw the inkstone, she couldn't help but regret it when she saw that Shangguan Wan'er didn't dodge or dodge, and the blood flowed all over her face, but she didn't know if Shangguan Wan'er didn't say it, or deliberately concealed it, in fact, her first guess was the crown prince Wuz. But Shangguan Wan'er said that she didn't know, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
"Tell me about it!" The Empress snapped and sat down in the circle chair.
Shangguan Wan'er endured the pain and said: "Last month, His Majesty invited Zhang Konghe and the two, as well as literary scholars, to drink at night, and then His Majesty was sleepy, so he rested early, and the slave maid ...... that night."
After listening to Shangguan Wan'er's narration, the empress suddenly showed a trace of shame on her face, in fact, she was in high spirits that night, so she left with Erzhang, but it turned out that Shangguan Wan'er lost her body, which was her sin. But she wouldn't admit it, and she wouldn't apologize, so she said in a somewhat gentle tone, "Come on, call Imperial Doctor Cao to me, and ask him to bring some wound medicine!" ”
Soon, Imperial Doctor Cao arrived, and when he saw Shangguan Wan'er's face covered with blood, he couldn't help but be startled, they, the imperial doctors in the palace, were taken care of by Shangguan Wan'er on weekdays, so they were all very respectful to Shangguan Wan'er. At this moment, seeing Shangguan Wan'er like this, she knew that it must have been done by the empress.
The empress instructed: "Imperial Doctor Cao, you take a look at Shangguan to be controlled, don't leave a scar, I am a little tired, so I will rest." ”
After the empress was supported by the palace maid, Imperial Doctor Cao bowed down and said, "Shangguan is waiting for the system, let the old man come and take a look." ”
Shangguan Wan'er nodded, then pointed to the center of her eyebrows and said, "I'm afraid that this center of the eyebrows is injured." ”
So, Imperial Doctor Cao first asked the palace people to fetch water, and then slowly cleaned it, and then let out a sigh of relief, and said: "It's okay, it's just a broken skin, but the face is the most delicate part of a person, and it is estimated that it will leave a scar." ”
Everyone has a love for beauty, not to mention Shangguan Wan'er, who is known for her beauty and wisdom, Shangguan Wan'er was stunned for a moment, and sighed in her heart, Brother Qing, there will be no beauty in the future, you can't live up to me, she said: "Thank you Imperial Doctor Cao, since the skin is broken, then you won't work for Imperial Doctor Cao." ”
Shangguan Wan'er scolded in her heart, she has become like this, what do you want to do with an old pervert! Soon Shangguan Wan'er left Imperial Doctor Cao, got up and came to her bedroom, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, only to see that a piece of skin at the center of her eyebrows was missing. The corners of her mouth twitched, and she ordered the palace people to boil hot water, so let's take a bath first!
But after a while, Shangguan Wan'er took a bath and changed her clothes, and came to the dresser again, after sitting down, she looked at herself in the mirror and found that she was not as beautiful as before, she pouted and said, "Wan'er, Wan'er, what are you doing?" Beauty is like a flower, you have a few more years to live! It's better to be ugly! ”
Poof!
I saw the woman in the mirror laughing stupidly, her smile was pure, as if she was a girl. Immediately, Shangguan Wan'er took the dresser, and after opening it, there was a box of jewelry inside, most of which she had saved, but unfortunately she couldn't wear it in the palace. There is also a dresser in the house, which was given to her by her own man, saying that it is a "birthday gift", but she can only wear it at home for a while. It's just that the man is now on the expedition, and she has no intention of dressing up even in the house.
Shangguan Wan'er sighed lightly, fiddling with those jewelry, and suddenly, her fingers hurt, and then she saw that it was a small golden day, like a plum blossom. Her mind moved, and she immediately took out the small golden dan the size of a bean, and then placed it on her forehead, and then moved it down and placed it on the center of her eyebrows.
Poof!
Shangguan Wan'er laughed happily and said to herself, "It's beautiful! ”
Immediately, she took the eyebrow pencil, put on gouache, and carefully traced the wound in the center of the eyebrow in front of the bronze mirror.
But for a moment, I saw a plum blossom pattern appear in the center of Shangguan Wan'er's eyebrows, and there was no trace of damage.
Hey!
Shangguan Wan'er laughed at Wu Zheng's laughter, and then pointed to the bronze mirror and said, "Where did you come from, little girl, come over to this king!" ”
Immediately, there was a giggle in the dormitory, which surprised the palace maids waiting outside the hall, and they didn't know what was happening in the hall. (To be continued......)
